 | | Later Shoei accompanied Motonobu in decorating the walls of the Zuihoin, a subtemple of the Daitokuji in Kyoto built by the daimyo Otomo Sorin (153087). |
 | | Soon afterwards the Daitokuji employed Shoei to create an immense hanging scroll of Parinirvana (Death of Buddha; 6.33*3.81 m; 1563; Kyoto, Daitokuji), the only work by him on a Buddhist theme known to survive and his earliest datable work. |
